"I have a legal education, and I have experience in the legal field," said Antcliff. "I have good relationships with Judges and attorneys. I'm a courteous, polite, ambitious and hard-workingperson." Randol, 36, Greenwood, has worked as first deputy clerk in charge of voter registration for more than two years. Also, Randol, a divorced mother, has served on a state committee that made recommendations to the Indiana Supreme Court about child-support reform. Randol said those experiences give her the qualifications she needs for the Clerk's Office, and the ability to explain changes to the public.

"People need to be educated about these procedures," Randol said. "I am personable, and I get along with the public. I am a good administra-tor. I have proven that I can manage Lives warned Robinson of the smoke, but the 73-year-old man was reluctant to leave his home. Williams noticed the fire seemed to be around the chimney at the back of the house, so he went in back and tried to shut off the oil furnace.

Unable to do so, he then closed the valves on the outside oil tanks. He ran back into the house and got Robinson out, then attempted to extinguish the fire with a garden hose until Amity and Edinburgh firefighters arrived. Robinson was not hurt in the fire, but the blaze severly damaged his home. Terry Harmon invited his nephew, 7-year-old Michael Jones, to celebrate the boy's birthday July 11 at the New Whiteiand home of Harmon's mother. There the whole family could celebrate Michael's birthday by the pool.

While the family was poolside, a burglar alarm was accidentally tripped in the house. Most were distracted by the shrill siren and went to investigate. While others weren't looking, Michael sank in the deep end of the pool Apparently he had gone down a slide with his inflatable ring on, but it came off when he hit the water. Michael's brother, Josh, told his aunt, Mona Adkins, who swam to the bottom and, with her husband, Bud, brought him to the side of the pool Harmon helped bring him out of the pool. Michael wasn't breathing and his lips were blue.

At first Harmon thought the boy had choked and attempted the Heimlich maneuver. When that was fruitless, he began mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. After four breaths, Michael started to cry. Soon after, he was up walking around. He was treated at Johnson Memorial Hospital and released a few hours later.

Thanks to Harmon's actions, Michael completely recovered. Bud and Mona Adkins also were recognized for assisting in the rescue. On the Fourth of July, Greenwood firefighters Bobby Melton and Karen Hickman were on duty at Station 3 when they were called to the scene of a trailer fire at 1:30 pm When they arrived, there was heavy smoke billowing from the trailer. Neighbors told the firefighters that an elderly woman was trapped inside. Melton and Hickman entered the single-wide trailer and began searching for the woman.

The firefighters came upon a 78-year-old woman who was unconscious in the hallway. Melton and Hickman carried her out of the burning trailer. She was transported to Wishard Memorial Hospital in Indianapolis while firefighters continued to battle the blaze. Unfortunately, she died the next day from burns over 40 percent of her body. "Bobby Melton and Karen Hickman are to be commended for their heroism and bravery for entering a burning building to rescue an unconscious woman," said White River Volunteer Fire Department Chief Scott Cassin, who presented the pair with their plaque.

Late on the night of Feb. 19, Edinburgh police officer Pat Pankey was the voter registration office." Jones-Matthews, 45, Franklin, has been in charge of implementing the Americans with Disabilites Act, a federally mandated program to approve access for the disabled, for the city of Franklin. Jones-Matthews has dealt with the Clerk's Office as a user, once working as a secretary in the Prosecutor's Office. Jones-Matthews said that experience makes her ready for the work in the Clerk's Office while also teaching her how to adapt an office to new mandates. "Change is not always easy, but I feel like I will do a good Job helping' (the Clerk's Office) through that change," Jones-Matthews said.

"I have had a variety of experiences. I'm prepared for office." Though the election is this year, the new clerk's four-year term does not begin until 1996. Sutton is running for State Auditor this year, and if she wins, a replacement will be appointed to fill out the rest of her term as clerk. finishing his shift when an emergency call came from down the street. Pankey and Officer David Lutz arrived at the home of Jim Eaton, who had suffered a massive heart attack and was unconscious when the officers arrived.

The pair promptly began giving cardiopulmonary resuscitation. When the Edinburgh Fire Department arrived, Eaton was still not breathing and without a pulse. The crew took over resuscitation efforts, placing him on a heart monitor and administering a shock to trigger his heart. Eaton regained his pulse. He was transported to the hospital.

When Fire Chief Allen Smith went to the hospital to check on Eaton, he was expecting to see the worst. Instead, he found Eaton sitting in bed watching an Indiana University basketball game. Officers Lutz and Panky, and firefighters Smith, Scott Holland, Joe Russell, Justin Lollar and Lonnie Smith were cited by the Red Cross for their lifesaving efforts. Others receive honors The American Red Cross also honored outstanding board members and volunteers in the past year. Outgoing board member Rev Mengle, copy desk chief at the Daily Journal, was named Outstanding Board Member of the Year.

Linda Norton was awarded the Clara Barton Award for her MENOU nine years working for the local chapter. Loren Scott and Ruth Niccum also were recognized for their volunteer efforts. Candidates rations to the Election Board. Gregory was the only candidate to attend the hearing and argue against Rumell's position. Rumell "is on the wrong road," Huddleston said.

"He's talking about Issues that don't have anything to do with candidacy." As for Rumell's complaints about oaths of office, "That only related to the people in office now," Huddleston said, referring to Coachys, Hamner, Gregory and Loyd. "It didn't pertain to Pitcher at all." Rumell said he will now attempt to file criminal complaints against the Election Board for allowing the "illegal" officeholders to appear on the ballot. Other officials say that Rumell, as a private citizen, has no authority to file charges, and his oath of office complaints are irrelevant.
